The Council is comprised of education professionals who are exploring the relationship among emerging media; shifting economic, social, and cultural patterns in the U.S. and the world; and innovative strategies for supporting increasingly powerful learning. The Council seeks to partner with educators and organizations who share interests in these relationships.

C21L’s mission is to support system-wide changes in education leading to a focus on serving learners at every level of the education system. We assume that educators and administrators are learners, and that students may also teach in certain contexts. We believe a robust education system serves learners of all ages, colors, and aptitudes, regardless of their geographic location, unique challenges or interests.
